City of Heroes: The Coming Storm

Crey Corporation

While this corporation is very visible to the public, their public image is of protection and the betterment of society. Their founder, the widow Countess Crey, is seen in some quarters as a kindly, benevolent woman who only wants the best for humanity and whose discoveries in the field of biotech will only improve life as we know it.

However, beneath the public face — or so claim some detractors — lies a separate Crey, the real face of the Crey Corporation, a group whose ruthless actions lead to nothing but death and destruction as they pursue their true goals, wealth and power. Crey Corporation, however, rebuffs any such claims as baseless mudslinging — and so far, no matter how vile the claim against them, the public at large seems to believe that Crey is only looking out for the good of the city as a whole. Too, no matter the claim or charge, no judge has ever found the Countess guilty of wrongdoing; several heroes, trying to take on Crey, have found themselves social pariahs for their “senseless and baseless attacks” against the corporation.
